Only need a couple to help me finish bottom left corner of this fiendish crossword. 20a: "Use caution after one's abandoned reorganisation of a person's cover": letters I have are C???N?O?? [I think the N is right.] And 17d "clever irony is evident in a branch of the family". Basically just got "M" as last of 7 letters: I know "sarcasm" goes in ... but it seems too obvious, and anyway not quite right for "clever". Any help will be gratefully received.

20a cutaneous
17d asteism

Thanks, sudokulover .... which ought to have made 24a obvious - but it hasn't. "Befuddled hallucinogen - angel dusted - a candle maker", for which I've now got U?I?H?N

Anagram take angel out of Hallucinogen Hope this helps

It looks like it might be an anagram of hallucinogen, minus the letters A.N.G.E.L. but i cannot get any further than that.

Welll, well...! Thanks to one and all. Obscure .... or what?! I'd gone the anagram-minus-angel route, but to no avail: none of my dictionaries, books or digital has that word. You live and learn; but I doubt if I'll remember it.
